Unforeseen Circumstances: Episode 1

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

“You play as a anonymous, lone rebel, woken up by the combine’s threatening movement through the forest, with no memory whatsoever of how you got there.

You’ll go through the forest and find your way to City 17, and drive through to the other side of the City to find a way to get to The White Forest base, with or without help.

In this mod you will explore and traverse many environments and locations, including (and still might change in development) : White Forest, City 17, and possibly The Coast.

This mod takes place not too long after Freeman has just been taken out of stasis.”

Without Doubts

Looks like you are on a space station or maybe it’s just the night view.

Who knows, or cares, just kill everything until you reach the oil tanker.

Take you time, this is quite a challenge.
